No_Connection, take a Shellos (West Sea, the pink one). This Shellos dislikes battling, so can never have an attack above 70 Base Power. However, its evolution changes it completely. The Gastrodon must then only have moves above 70 Base Power, but can only ever have one STAB move.

Challenge The Scramble Challange

Take a Pachirisu. It thinks it is a super hero, and must be named Squirrlman. It must be male. It must know attacking moves only, except the ones below. It must have the following moveset by the E4:
-Super Fang
-Thunder
-Rain Dance
-Grass Knot / Light Screen
It must always be three levels above your next highest Pokemon. Starting when you beat Gardenia, it increases by one level above the others. Have fun.
So I've got this:
Edit for No_Connection: I give you Macho, the pimp Abra. Macho is a ladies' Pokémon; it must know Captivate, Attract and Swagger (whenever that is possible), and, nice as he is, he doesn't fight ladies. He can only fight male Pokémon.
Note that Macho has to be male, and that Swagger is only used against male Pokémon, while Captivate and Attract are only used outside battle. There are no restrictions regarding nature or evolving.
This can't ever be that hard.

What? What is this?! Is this a non MEP Pachirisu? How dare you?
MEP requirements get boring. I was GOING to make it an MEP at first, but then withdrew it. EDIT: Made it harder. Happy?
Sorry, but how can Captivate and Attract be used Outside of battle? :S
They can't. It's just there to raise the chances of Macho having happytime with some female Pokémon. Not to actually do something in battle.
@Navelpluis13
I have to be honest here, I'm sorry, but I don't think I can have a 2-move Alakazam (with one of the moves being Swagger), could you please do me another? Thanks.

No? Psychic would work just fine, I guess. I was gonna give you a non-special Alakazam, you can do that too, if you want. Only use physical moves, no other restrictions. Call it Macho.
So you think the original challenge was easy and fun AS IT IS SUPPOSED TO BE???
Great because I'll change the poke I gave you for your Macho with all the restrictions you originally gave him.
Oh well, at least I don't have that stupid Murkrow that refrains from evolving anymore.
@No Connections:
Catch Skorupis until you catch one that is holding a Poison barb. When you do name it PickleTree. It may never hold another item.
It may only evolve to Drapion if a) it solos Volkner without using any moves learned by TM or HM & b)knows the move Venom Fang. You may not delete Venom Fang and you must use Venom Fang against every opponent that takes Super Effective damage from Poison-type attacks

That's the spirit! If you want you can even have Bruce the Hitmonlee you gave me! Just to see how nice I am! And please control your language.
@Vratix I need a pokemon to use in Platinum post E4 that is not on the Sinnoh Dex. It's the last spot.
By the way.. Everyone, I need a Starter still, so I haven't started on it yet, so.. would be nice to have one of those.. :)
EDIT: Only ONE more slot. Starter place still free.

I honestly dont think navel's original Macho the abra challenge was too hard. Does zam really need anything else besides stab?
No Connection, You get a spiritomb! Name it Sinner. However, the 108 souls that comprise spiritomb have decided they want to repent for their misdeeds, and will refuse to use any dark type attack. Thats all. Pretty easy one really.

Meh, i dont think the abra challenge was any harder than the one i gave you, but the hitmonlee one was pretty rediculous.
So, what is the actual idea? Should it be hard to execute, nearly impossible, should there be a story behind it? I kind of get the idea, but... Yeah.
Look, can somebody pleease give me a starter? I can't really start until I get one..
There's only one idea here: have fun with your scramble!
Please review the pokes you gave and picture yourself using them. Maybe you can understand me then
Okay, Thank you Dummy007. I'll try and keep my progress posted. :) Let's go.
Depending on what the person asks for, the difficulty should vary, but unless the person specifically asks it for brutally hard, dont give out something you wouldnt want to do yourself. There doesn't need to be a story at all, thats acutally something pretty new to the thread, but it adds to the flavor, which is always fun.
Also, zdrup, i hope the houndour challenge i gave you wasn't too hard. I dont think it will be, but since ive never played gen 4 i might be underestimating turnback cave. i tried to find a pokemon that, even at lower levels, could beat the pokemon in turnback cave so... yeah.
Pearl Scramble Progress:
My Turtortle obtained, I set about both catching the Shinx set by Xarix and Sprocket's challenge. As luck would have it, the first pokemon I find is a Shinx, and so this is Sprocket's one. Level 3. Doesn't seem to be particularly useful, and it will probably be worth catching something else on the next route. Xarix's Shinx has also been caught, and this has been trained to level 7. Turtortle is level 6, progressing nicely. Hooray for random early updates!
